Source Naturals, Spirulina Powder, 16 oz (454 g)

The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.

Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.

Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

Shipping Weight

The Shipping Weight includes the product, protective packaging material and the actual shipping box. In addition, the Shipping Weight may be adjusted for the Dimensional Weight (e.g. length, width &amp; height) of a package. It is important to note that certain types of products (e.g. glass containers, liquids, fragile, refrigerated or ice packed) will often require protective packaging material. As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

Description

Dietary Supplement

For over 30 years spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) has been the premier choice for supplementing a vegetarian diet. Source Naturals Spirulina is a high quality blue green algae which is a high protein, low fat source of numerous vitamins, minerals, carotenoids and essential fatty acids. Spirulina is an excellent source of many nutrients that are hard to maintain at adequate levels with a vegetarian diet. Most notable is the high quality protein, which contains all nine essential amino acids. Spirulina's cell walls do not contain cellulose to slow digestion. Source Naturals Spirulina is naturally grown and harvested without herbicides or pesticides.

Suggested Use

Use 1 rounded tablespoon daily mixed in water or juice or add to soup, pasta,
etc., after cooking.

I bought this product and knew Spirulina doesn't smell like roses or tastes chocolate, but... When I tasted it I thought I was going to throw up. Never in my life have I ever tasted such bad stuff. I wouldn't even recommend it to my worst enemy. It tastes really bad. Use your money on other products instead :-)

This is my first Spirulina ever. I thought I would have a bad taste than it actually has, I can eat pretty well. Since I take my skin is nice and clean, and it has increased my energy level. It is a good choice for the price it costs.
